OPERATING THE TRANSCEIVER
SCANNING CHANNELS
ENVOY™ TRANSCEIVER GETTING STARTED GUIDE 65
Scanning channels
If you intend to receive calls on several channels, switch on
scanning. When scanning is switched on, the transceiver
sequentially selects each channel/mode in your scan tables to detect
incoming calls. The channel are scanned in a continuous cycle.
Mute is switched on automatically.
NOTE: Only those scan tables that are set to be scanned have
the channels scanned.
When the transceiver detects a call addressed to your station, it
stops scanning and notifies you according to the type of call
received. When you press SCAN to end the call, scanning resumes.
If you do not press this key to end the call, or any other key within
a pre-determined timeout, the transceiver automatically ends the
call and resumes scanning.
NOTE: The default standby state for the transceiver is to
return to scanning so that it is ready to receive calls
across a range of frequencies.
When the transceiver detects voice, it notifies you according to the
mute setting selected. If your transceiver is set to notify you when
voice is detected (V), you can pause scanning, select the
channel/mode on which the voice was heard, then resume scanning
when required. If your transceiver is set to Selcall mute (S), it only
pauses scanning when it detects a call addressed to your station.
It is recommended that scanning is switched on when you are not
using the transceiver to communicate.
Switching scanning on or off
To switch scanning on or off:
Press SCAN.
If a call is not in progress, scanning is toggled on or off.
If a call is in progress, the call is ended and the transceiver
begins scanning.
